How other platforms handle this
Before accepting such a request from an agent, we will require the agent to provide proof you have authorized it to act on your behalf, and we may need you to verify your identity directly with us.
When you exercise any of your applicable legal rights to access, amend, or delete your personal information, we may request additional information from you for the purpose of confirming your identity.
Any disclosures We provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable request's receipt.
